Bishop's moss mouse

Mammals

Bishop's moss mouse (Pseudohydromys berniceae) is a species of mouse in the family Muridae that is endemic to Papua New Guinea. It belongs to the moss mice, the genus Pseudohydromys, and was described in 2009 by Kristofer M. Helgen and Lauren E. Helgen, whose revision of the New Guinea moss mice in the Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History is the article's main reference. The IUCN Red List assessment that Wikipedia cites, published in 2016, rates the species as Least Concern. Being endemic, it is known only from Papua New Guinea, and the article places it among the rodents of New Guinea.
